Just wanted to provide a quick update - NO ADVERSE EFFECTS pursuant to removing the igniter on the XXV. Overall this year I am seeing VERY clean burns...but, since I also added an OAK and switched pellet brands (softwood-heavy Fireside Ultra), I can't say with any certainty which of these changes has helped most. But, I can say for sure that I am continually seeing nice vertical unobstructed airflow from my burnpot - no "curled mustaches" or bowed-out flames at all, which I think is definitely attributable to the igniter being out of the way and not catching ash.

My neighbor? The one that smokes up the area with smoke from his outdoor wood furnace with a rain cap and short stack? That covers the road with a smoke bank? I can only hope my wisp of smoke pisses him off

Yeah, I don't feel inclined to remove it from the P61A - lots of room inside there and haven't had any ash jam-ups around the ignitor like I was getting with the XXV.
